Youth Futures – Panel discussion on importance of Immigration, Settlement & Integration

This event will highlight the importance of immigrants to the Youth Futures program, and the importance of getting young people (immigrants and otherwise) involved in their communities. The discussions will showcase that newcomers to Canada need valuable leadership training, to become further involved and connected with their communities. The event will also emphasize that Immigrant youths are the key to breaking an intergenerational cycle of stunted growth upon entering Canada.
